Boss: You're telling me if we're PCI-DSS compliant we can get a better processing rate from the bank?

Security Professional: Yes, but we need to remain compliant year over year.

Boss: Ah yeah, but our sales margin will improve?

Security Professional: Yes, but we have to dedicate an ongoing level of effort to staying compliant!

Boss: Yeah, yeah but it will improve profitability!

Security Professional: But there is a tech cost.

Boss: Cost? of course, we'll buy you guys a new high-end coffee maker!

pci compliance
The responsibility of maintaining a secure credit card processing environment must rest with credit card processing companies.  A small business can secure their network and data with a certain set of clear rules but the rules as written would be a challange for a security Specialist to implement in a small business environment with a small budget.  The point of paying a discount fee and processing fees for a small business is to insure that the majority of the risk is assumed by the credit card processor.  If the current environment continues I see a time where other forms of payment will be preferred by small business and the majority processors left wondering what occured to their volume/business.

The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises Today
Managing system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.
